Description: From the Debian advisory:

CVE-2011-2723: Brent Meshier reported an issue in the GRO (generic receive offload) implementation. This can be exploited by remote users to create a denial of service (system crash) in certain network device configurations.

CVE-2011-3188: Dan Kaminsky reported a weakness of the sequence number generation in the TCP protocol implementation. This can be used by remote attackers to inject packets into an active session.

CVE-2011-3191: Darren Lavender reported an issue in the Common Internet File System (CIFS). A malicious file server could cause memory corruption leading to a denial of service.
